He was also the hero in a number of Westerns such as Dodge City, Santa Fe Trail, and San Antonio.
ASTROLOGY
Astrology has served a critical role in society, forever. It is probably older than Gold. It is arguably the oldest thought-system on earth. As astrology grows in popularity and use all over the world, The Ratio aims to reignite humanity’s study of astrology with the most recent human technologies like Big Data, Statistics, and AI. Humanity can and should know the best about our history and our relationship to the cosmos.
Below is more information about the definition of sun sign, moon sign and rising sign - not just in contemporary astrology but also ancient astrology. At least in the Western world. Astrology is not unique to the Western world, in fact it developed independently in every continent on earth. We focus here on the West. Contemporary definitions were poetically summarized by author Katy Bohinc, and ancient definitions largely come from the beautiful text “Astrology, Magic and Alchemy in Art” by Getty Publications of the J. Paul Getty Museum. Each of us is not just an astrology chart; an astrology chart is also one’s belonging in history and the universe. Astrology is the macro-cosmos and the micro-cosmos, it is ancient and contemporary, it is a place in space and also in time.
SUN SIGN
In contemporary astrology, the moon represents our feelings and emotions.
The zodiac sign where our moon falls describes how we emotionally process and react to situations
all
our life.
In the ancient world, the Moon held a pre-eminent position among the celestial bodies because among
other things, its movement served to mark time and nature’s major functions such as generation,
growth,
and death.
The moon was personified by the great archaic goddesses who guarded the rhythms of nature and the
occult
arts like the Egyptian Isis, Greek Hecate and Persephone, and the Roman Diana.
The moon was also associated with the figure of the Virgin Mary.
The length of a month, 28 days, was calculated based on lunar phases – new moon, quarter moon, full
moon, and last quarter moon – as were a woman’s fertile periods and the gestation of the fetus in
the
mother’s womb.
The movement of the tides and important chores such as sowing, pruning, and decanting wine into
casks
also depended on the phase of the moon.
The moon was humanity’s original calendar and was associated with the cycles of life : fertility
(full
moon), death (black moon), and regeneration (new moon).
The color of the moon, changing as it does from dark red to brilliant white, its brightness, and its
position along the heavenly horizon were considered to be signs of either calamities or strokes of
good
fortune, as were lunar halos and eclipses.
Because of the variability with which it appears and disappears from the sky and its influence on
female
physiology and on fruits and plants, the Moon has been reputed to be the cause of many psychological
phenomena.
In ancient astrology, the moon symbolizes the Mother.
For Neoplatonists, the moon is associated with the body and form.
In Dante’s cosmology, the moon was the seat of Grammar.
GEMINI
In contemporary astrology, Gemini maintains a lot of characteristics from ancient times. It is a bit paradoxical that a sign defined by “dualism” has maintained a relatively constant definition over millennia. Or perhaps it is most true that the universe’s most fundamental definition is an ability to change. Represented by “the twins,” Gemini represents a dualistic, changeable nature. Gemini is associated with artists. A recent study showed a large number of prominent rappers have Gemini somewhere in their sun, moon, or rising. Gemini sometimes get a bad reputation for speaking out of both sides of the mouth, being unable to take a stand, or appearing to lie because they can speak to both sides of an issue. A recent American president often accused of speaking without regard for the truth has a lot of Gemini in his chart. Ultimately, Gemini embraces both good and bad, true and untrue, beautiful and ugly. In ancient times, the third sign of the western zodiac, Gemini symbolized the ambivalence of the cosmos. Gemini originated between 6500 B.C. and 4300 B.C. according to modern calculations. Typically depicted by “twins”, gemini represented the vital energy generated by the merging of opposites and the divisions of equal parts of day and night. Gemini twins represented the dual nature of many things - day and night, spirit and matter, extroversion and introversion, action and reception – and the dueling energy of sun and moon (Aries and Taurus). Twins were believed to be dynamic and regenerative, the source of all things from basic breathing to the dynamism of thought. In antiquity, the twins were worshiped as the patron saints of dance, bards, poetry & travelers. Due to their versatility and the fact that there are two dichotomous twins, Gemini was seen to be unstable, ambiguous and lacking a strong sense of identity. The mutable, shifting or fungible aspect of Gemini is its defining characteristic – perfect for the arts & handling any situation – through a shifting personality. In the ancient Greek world, the twins were represented by Castor and Pollux, who represented two contrary temperaments and attitudes – the former emotional and hard pressed to carry out what they had begun, and the latter insensitive, hyperactive, and skilled in handling any type of situation. Gemini was associated with the end of spring, with adolescence and with air.

CANCER
In contemporary astrology, cancer represents sensitivity, the maternal, and the home. Like the crab who can walk forward and backwards in response to the tide, cancer represents a sensitive, intuitive nature which can respond in delicate increments to situations around them. Cancer is associated with everything to do with the home or in other words, domestic. Cooking, cleaning, staying in and nesting on the couch, tending to the emotional needs of others – or in other words, attributes of home-making - are all associated with Cancer. Cancer in antiquity was the sign of summer and the moon. Considered a sign of the unconscious, clairvoyance, and fertility, the ancient Greeks represented the sign of cancer as an Octopus, an animal symbol linked to embryonic life. Cancer was also symbolized by the crab, which slows its walk to go backwards, almost like the sun as it begins to “station” in the sky just prior to the summer solstice. During the slowing months of the summer when the sun “stations” longer in the sky, cancer represents the return of the psyche into the maternal womb, germinative life, and regenerating fruitfulness. Similar to the seeds gestating in the field, and like a baby in the womb, Cancer represents a time of maternal incubation and generation. Neoplatonists believed that the Cancer constellation was one of two heavenly gates which the soul transited through on the path to bodily reincarnation (the Tropic of Cancer area of the sky.) Cancer is also linked to the moon and water, so it represents a constant state of becoming. Sometimes said to be restless and hyper emotional, Cancer was also known to be capable of future rebirths. Cancer ultimately corresponded to motherhood, and the gestation of the field during summer in preparation for harvest, like a child in the womb.
RISING SIGN
In contemporary astrology, the Rising sign denotes the social personality of an individual in the
first
15 minutes of meeting someone.
We might often wonder why we act slightly differently in social situations than in private
situations
with close friends and family.
Contemporary astrology would tell us that our social personalities are often different from our
private
ones (unless the rising sign and the sun sign are the same).
In both contemporary and ancient times, the Rising sign is also used to calculate the different
houses
of an astrology chart.
The ascendant (rising sign) in ancient times was named by the constellation which sat to the East in
the
horizon at the time and place of a person’s birth.
From the Greek “hora” (hour) and “skopeo” (I observe), horoscope means the “zodiac point that looks
at
the hour”.
By extension, “horoscope” means the study of the birth theme of the individual based on the time of
birth.
The term “prognostication” is derived from the Greek “prognostikos”, or the science of future
events.
In order to truly calculate a horoscope, the Rising sign of the individual needs to be included to
observe the houses in each sector of a person’s birth chart.
This means an individual’s time of birth is a critical factor in studying an individual’s horoscope
at
depth and providing any type of true “prognostication”.

ARIES
In contemporary astrology, Aries is associated with initiation. Not always regarding all the details, the Aries can be counted on to take initiative, jump in, and be first. Aries is associated with fire. Oftentimes in undertaking initiative in a fiery way, Aries can also be associated with the opposite traits of Libra (opposing sign), e.g. lacking diplomacy. Aries is associated with independence, individualism, and the capacity to jump first into the action, the conversation, or the fire. In ancient astrology, Aries designates the rebirth of the sun in springtime (after the winter darkness) and the regeneration of energy in the cosmos. Because of these symbolic functions, Aries acquired the name of the “best star” in the zodiac. Aries became the star that witnessed biblical creation (at the time of the birth of Christ). However, Aries was not always the first sign of the zodiac. This change placing Aries as the first sign of the zodiac did not occur until roughly 3 B.C. Prior to this, a feminine sign, Virgo, was associated with the birth of fall and the harvest, was the first sign of the zodiac. The epochal change of the first sign of the zodiac from Virgo to Aries marked the transition from a feminine, matriarchal conception of the world to a patriarchal type of universe ruled by male divinities. Aries signified the renewal of the equinox and the victory of the sun gods (masculine) over the constellations of the moon (feminine). In ancient times, Aries signified charity and benevolence. Aries was symbolized by the Ram and was often associated with the Christ figure (Easter is during Aries season) through a representation of the good shepherd and the sacrificial lamb. Aries expressed creative impulse, courage and independence – but also had an explosive, untamed aggression (like a ram). Aries corresponds to the beginning of spring, to youth, to fire and a temperament of “dry heat”. Aries is symbolized by the Ram’s head, the male organ, and the first sprouting of seeds.
